Mining pool: unity makes strength... and profit? ⛏️🔗
For those who can't afford a data center, participating in a mining pool is an alternative. By combining your hash power with other miners, you receive rewards proportional to your effort. However, it's still necessary to assess whether the return outweighs the cost of equipment and energy. Some pools offer payment per share, ensuring compensation even when the pool doesn't find blocks. DYOR: check reputation, fees, and server location. Only Bitcoin is truly decentralized; pools only redistribute blocks, they do not control the network.
